Chapter 31

"Master..." Lin Yu’s voice trembled. He struggled to shake his head, then pinched his cheek hard. Only when he felt the pain did he realize this was not a dream, and he suppressed the joy surging in his heart.

A scaled flying demonic beast descended, unleashing several wind blades in an attempt to tear Lu Tianming apart. Yet, before it could come within ten yards of him, it was slashed down. Having lost its wings, it followed in the footsteps of the red-backed purple wolf.

Not to mention that Huang Lishui had been constantly looking for trouble with Ye Feng; she certainly would not miss the opportunity to exploit the emotions of these people.

"What is going on here! Could they be mercenaries hired by the Theocaug Empire?!" Stick carried no weapon; he merely grabbed a wooden stick from the room to defend himself.

At this moment, the few people who were fully focused on preparing to cast the Space Destruction Immortal Pearl slowed down in unison upon seeing the new technique Ye Feng had unleashed.

Over there, Yu Sisi, violently flung aside and having lost her balance, crashed into a chair. Her body continued to roll uncontrollably to the right, finally hitting the floor with a thud.

"Thank you, Great Lama!" Old Man Ram knelt respectfully before the platter, silently repenting. The Champa Lama then picked up a conch shell and blew into the basin of purified water. Ethereal, mysterious notes emerged and fell directly into the water, which began to subtly change.

Bang! Clang! The force of a palm strike and the energy of a sword clashed repeatedly. Each had its own merits, and for a moment, the battle remained a stalemate.

"My second uncle broke through to the realm of a fourth-rank alchemist not long ago. It’s just that our Tie family kept the news sealed; only a few people know, and Su Yi is one of them," Tie Tuo said calmly, looking at Yang Rudan.

"Haha," Ye Yunfei laughed, patting Ye Xue's head. "The Heavenly Tripod Sect's recruitment day is coming soon. Last year, I told you to go, but you refused. This year, you must go no matter what. Only there can you truly grow," Ye Yunfei said.

Seeing Fang Lang approach his side, Blackbeard laughed aloud and unleashed a palm strike. The moment the strike was launched, it transformed into a patch of darkness. When it touched the head of the Poison Dragon, it generated a powerful suction force, drawing the entire eight-meter-long dragon in from head to tail.

The defeated Cao troops fled in all directions. Fortunately, Xu Chu protected Cao Cao, brandishing a saddle to deflect the incoming arrows.

Lin Su requested three working days for everyone to familiarize themselves with the material before initiating discussions. Only by understanding the matters oneself could one propose requirements and suggestions to other departments.

After purchasing the three items, having obtained what he wanted and spent most of his money, Xu Mo felt that lingering in the belly of the Snake-Bone Guardian was no longer comfortable. It was better to return quickly and proceed to the next step, so he prepared to leave.

Delittan and the others were sprinting just over ten meters away from Bai Gang. It would take only two or three seconds to arrive—it looked close, but in reality, it felt a long way off.

Li An had never encountered such a situation. He could say he lacked experience, never imagining that the scenes from movies would manifest before his very eyes.

Facing the brave and battle-hardened Mongol elite troops, although they were still at a disadvantage in one-on-one combat, the ten thousand Song soldiers behind them were no pushovers.

This was a critical moment. Lin Su felt that Gao Yuan’s heart was not as hardened as before. If he persisted just a little longer, perhaps Gao Yuan would relent.

He longed to verify his findings immediately, but it was already daytime. The sunlight was too bright to capture the feeling of practicing the blade under the moonlight; he would have to wait until nightfall to test it.

The poison mist spewing from the wounds of the zombified matriarch had almost no effect on Fatty, who even took a few deep sniffs, revealing a rather intoxicated, human-like expression.

However, he had sensed it at the time—when she suggested using poison to end that chaotic battle, why had he hesitated for a moment?

Liu Bao was speechless. He knew, of course, that Concubine Du was right. If one had to blame someone, it was fate’s cruel irony and the lack of timing.

"Why not bring some of them back to the bureau for questioning?" Nalan Zhimin questioned further.

"Rest assured, whoever owes a debt will eventually have to pay it back with interest," Mu Ling laughed.

At the top, middle, and bottom of this riddled, moss-covered large metal door, there were actually three transparent adhesive threads stretched across, thinner than a strand of hair.

The next moment, an intense sensation of weightlessness washed over him. He felt the world spinning, and then his vision went dark as he lost consciousness.

Night fell quietly. Merlin and his companions stood guard all night as if facing a formidable enemy, yet nothing happened.

A golden light suddenly surged from the ground. Seizing a fleeting opening in Zhu Zhu's defense, Mu Ling made a desperate, all-or-nothing dash toward the outside of the encirclement.

The handsome youth’s eyes were bloodshot with rage. He had never been humiliated like this before, but no matter how furious he was, there was nothing he could do; he simply had no power to resist Chen Luo.

This process was slower than advancing to the peak of a Soul Saint, as there were too many people and many levels to climb, consuming an endless amount of Soul Crystals. It took a full three months before everyone finally awakened from their cultivation.

Once given the chance to utilize his specialty in surprise attacks or assassination, he would become the most troublesome nightmare for his enemies.

Yuhai City was not like Yanyun City; it was a place long forged by the flames of war. Those who could open an inn in Yuhai City naturally held positions of status, and they had seen plenty of people like Pangu Tu and were not intimidated by his shouting and ferocity.

"That goes without saying, we are..." Li Guiyi said proudly, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he felt something was wrong. He abruptly cut himself off, received a glare from the two people beside him, and sullenly shut his mouth.
